Vartal-12: Faith Coupled with the Knowledge of God’s Greatness

Summary

1. Shri Purushottam Bhagwān, while seated in Akshardhām, assumes the avatārs to grant liberation to the jivas.
2. One who develops faith in the manifest form of God through the profound association of a Sant, then:

1. He progresses spiritually day by day like the waxing moon and finally becomes fulfilled like the full moon.
2. Regardless of the type of action God performs, he does not perceive any fault in God.
3. He becomes fearless.
4. He is convinced of his liberation and also those who come into his contact.

3. One who perceives faults in God’s action due to influence of unfavourable place, time, etc. or due to identifying one’s self with the body, then he falls from the path of liberation.
4. One who does not have conviction of the manifest form of God coupled with the knowledge of His greatness:

1. Does not develop conviction of his liberation.
2. No one attains liberation by hearing even holy scriptures like the Gitā and the Shrimad Bhāgwat from him.
